Today is my birthday and i am wanting to get my baby. Corn snake his adult cage and also am looking to get a baby ball python on october 15 at a reptile show and want to pick up a cage for him now,
Will this work for both snakes when they are both adults???

(and ofcourse they arent going to be housed together)
 
Both snakes can do fine in 20 gallon long vivs (I think the one you're looking at factors out to be a 29 gallon size), so yes, that cage would be suitable for both of them through their whole lives, separately of course. But, once they're adults, bigger is always better :)

My corn snake will be living in her 20 long for her whole life and my husband's ball python will be living in her 29 gallon her whole life. Or that's the plan for now anyway. Maybe we'll upgrade them later on, but everything we've read said that both will be fine in these size vivs their whole life.
 
I personally would put a ball python in something a bit larger, about 40-55 gallons minimum. I know that lots of breeders recommend smaller cages to make them feel "secure" but that is what hides are for... I have my ball python in a 2 foot by 4 foot cage and he's all over the thing. They don't have a reputation for being overly active, but I know mine is out all the time at night and I see a lot of my friend's ball pythons (kept in 67 quart tubs) moving around quite a bit at night. As far as can it live in the 29 gallon tank? Yes it can. I just personally like my snakes to be able to move around.
